Chapter 102: How Does It Feel To Be In The Limelight?

“Ye Xuan, during your training with Miss Lin, have you broken into Dark Iron level?”

Nong Lejia was commanding his Northern Nether Flying Fish and venturing towards Ye Xuan’s house.

In the meanwhile, he grabbed his phone and called Ye Xuan.

“Yeah, what’s up, Brother Lejia?”

Hearing the slight desperation in Nong Lejia’s voice through the phone, Ye Xuan asked in puzzlement.

“What is the state of your current ability? Did you contract any new beasts? Or in other words, can you defeat regular Beast Tamers in peak Dark Iron?”

Nong Lejia questioned once again on the phone.

“Has the friendly competition between Yunhai City’s Beast Taming Class and Yunzhong City’s Beast Taming Class commenced?”

Remembering that, Ye Xuan said after some thought, “With my current ability, dealing with regular peak Dark Iron Beast Tamers should be no problem.”

“Are you for real?”

Nong Lejia was extremely surprised.

He did not expect that Ye Xuan would gain such an amount of confidence over a short period of time.

“What beast have you contracted after you advance into Dark Iron level?”

He was inquisitive.

He knew that for Ye Xuan to be so confident.

It must have come from the beast which he contracted after he advanced into Dark Iron level.

“Never mind.”

But as soon as he hurled out the question, he remembered something.

He flipped over his phone and had a glance.

He realized that the class teacher of their Beast Taming Class, Wu Fuyun, was calling him at this very moment.

Nong Lejia knitted his eyebrows, “I’m not gonna ask you that. Please wait for me at home. I’m coming to pick you up right away. I still have something to do. I’m gonna hang up now.”

“Brother Lejia, since you’re in such a hurry, I think I’ll head to the Beast Taming Class myself right now. I’ll meet you halfway.”

Ye Xuan uttered a sentence and hung up the call.

“Mr. Wu, are you looking for me?”

As soon as he ended the call with Ye Xuan, Nong Lejia immediately answered Wu Fuyun’s call.

“Nong Lejia, the friendly competition between both cities’ Beast Taming Class is about to start. Where did you go?”

Wu Fuyun asked anxiously on the phone.

“Ye Xuan is back. I’m on my way to pick him up.”

Nong Lejia said.

“Ye Xuan?”

Wu Fuyun was surprised.

Little did he expected that Nong Lejia was on his way to pick up Ye Xuan.

“Make haste then. The competition wouldn’t take too long. If Ye Xuan arrives too late, the competition may be over already.”

Thinking, Wu Fuyun urged on the phone.

“I got it!”

Nong Lejia nodded, “And Mr. Wu, if possible, stall for some time. The longer, the better.”

“I called Ye Xuan just now. He had already become a Dark Iron Beast Tamer. He also told me that he’s confident in winning against regular Peak Dark Iron Beast Tamers.”

“Win against peak Dark Iron Beast Tamers? How is that even possible?”

Wu Fuyun was startled as he said with disbelief.

But immediately after, he said, “Alright then, get here as soon as possible. I’ll drag as much time for him as I can.”

The purpose of this friendly competition between Yunhai City and Yunzhong City was to let students from both cities that were partaking in the College Entrance Examination to adapt to the tense atmosphere in advance before the official exam.

But if Yunhai City were to lose too badly in this friendly competition, it would still be very embarrassing nonetheless.

Not only for Wu Fuyun.

It would be the same for Nong Lejia, who was born in Yunhai City.

Hence, if it’s possible, even they would like to partake in the competition.

“Dad, mom.”

At home, after Ye Xuan put down his phone, he immediately walked out of his room.

“Mr. Nong called me just now. I have to make a trip to the Beast Taming Class. Go and do your own stuff. I’ll have the food after I come back. Please don’t finish all the food.”

As he spoke, he hurriedly changed his clothes,

Walked out of the room,

And with Lil Wan’s help,

Flew straight in the direction of the Beast Taming Class.

Ye Xuan felt that using this friendly competition between Yunhai City and Yunzhong City to mark himself a perfect full stop before leaving Yunhai City was a pretty good thing.

With that in mind, carried by Lil Wan and flying at full speed, it did not take long for him to spot Nong Lejia, who was coming from afar.

When he saw Nong Lejia,

Especially the Northern Nether Flying Fish he was riding on, Ye Xuan was surprised.

He did not expect Nong Lejia to have such a flying-type beast in his possession.

[Northern Nether Flying Fish: ☆☆☆

Level: Silver (High)

Ability: Wind Manipulation, Water Manipulation, Condensed Energy Blade]

Seeing the Northern Nether Flying Fish, Ye Xuan prompted his mind and swiftly had its attributes appraised.

Now, he had developed the habit of using his Beast Editor at any time.

“Those attributes are pretty nice.”

Ye Xuan thought inwardly after he was done looking at the Northern Nether Flying Fish’s attributes.

Being a three-star grade Silver level beast would imply that it had a chance to grow into a Platinum level beast.

For a Beast Tamer with an ordinary aptitude, acquiring such a beast was already a pretty good thing.

As for the four-star and five-star Silver level beasts, for Beast Tamers with an ordinary aptitude, even if they could get their hands on one, it was still uncertain about whether they could form a contract with them successfully.

Ye Xuan already knew that Nong Lejia’s Beast Taming aptness was mediocre.

“Yo, big guy, you really became a Dark Iron Beast Tamer!”

Seeing Ye Xuan, a smile immediately cropped up on Nong Lejia’s face.

“Of course.”

Ye Xuan smiled as well, “I’m your student, after all, Brother Lejia.”

“Hahaha.”

Nong Lejia laughed, “Alright enough, no bootlicking. We’re in a hurry. I’ll let my Northern Nether Flying Fish fly us to the Beast Taming Class.”

“Alright.”

Ye Xuan answered.

Then, he asked Lil Wan to take him to the back of the Northern Nether Flying Fish.

“Whoosh!”

At the very next moment, the Northern Nether Flying Fish fluttered its thin wings, stirred up a gale, and dashed right towards the Beast Taming Class.

“Ye Xuan, I think it is time you tell me what beast you have contracted after you advance into Dark Iron level.”

Nong Lejia could not help but said as they were rushing towards the Beast Taming Class.

“And where did you get this hat from? Why does it look so strange? It’s so hard, and the patterns on it are even moving. Is this some new tech by some company or something? Does this hat of yours have some special functionalities?”

Hearing him, Ye Xuan adjusted the hat on his head with a strange expression.

No matter from who’s perspective, the Tidal Treasure Snail was too much like an excellent hat.

“If you wanna know, Brother Lejia, wait for a while longer. You’ll know when we reach the Beast Taming Class.”

…

Yunhai City, Beast Taming Class.

A tall and burly young man wearing Yunzhong City’s Beast Taming Class uniform was standing on the ring.

Looking at the students from Yunhai City’s Beast Taming Class from afar.

And intently commanding his beast, a Four-armed Vajra Ape,

To battle against them.

His Four-armed Vajra Ape was immensely high in power level.

Its four arms were like four metal clubs.

Every time they fell, a gust of violent wind would be incited.

On the other hand, the student from Yunhai City’s Beast Taming Class, at his opponent, who was in a pitched battle against him, controlled a Stone Mammoth and a Shadow Hunting Spider fight against him.

However, even when his two beasts were attacking in concert, he was no match for this student from Yunzhong City.

“Well, this certainly sucks. The gap between Yunhai City and us is too big. This friendly competition isn’t worth our efforts at all.”

Beneath the ring, some students from Yunzhong City gossiped quietly.

“You talk as if you’re perfect. It’s only because Gu Luo is too powerful. If it weren’t for him, we’d probably score a tie against these Beast Tamers from Yunhai City.”

“And I heard that Jiangzhou University’s specially enrolled student living in Yunhai City is absent today.”

“If not, I really wonder what the outcome of this friendly competition would be.”

But immediately, someone among Yunzhong City’s students logically analyzed.

“I heard about it too. I remember that the person’s name is Ye Xuan.”

Hearing him, someone immediately said while shaking his head, “But I heard that this guy had just awakened to his Beast Taming Aptitude not long ago. The reason he was able to become Jiangzhou University’s specially enrolled student is just because of his great aptness level.”

“Let alone going up against Gu Luo. I think he might not even be able to defeat us.”

“Gu Luo is already a peak Dark Iron Beast Tamer. Besides, of his two beasts, one of them is three-star Dark Iron, while the other is four-star Dark Iron.”

“And these two beasts are both in peak Dark Iron level.”

“With such power levels, Ye Xuan would probably have to train for a year or so after he goes to Jiangzhou University to be able to even go up against him.”

“But at that time, I think Gu Luo would’ve already become a Bronze level, Beast Tamer.”

“Urgh, my stomach hurts.”

When that person talked, a Beast Tamer from Yunzhong City held his stomach and ran out, “Enjoy the match halls. Gotta go do some private business.”

“Wang Bin, are you alright? How many times have you gone to the toilet already?”

Someone from behind shouted.

“It’s not like I want this to happen. But I might have truly been terrified today. My stomach is seriously embarrassing me.”

The young man who was running out said with a helpless face.

“Tsk, you think we’ll believe in you just because you said so?” Hearing him, everyone else scorned, “If it’s an adult Beast Tamer, we might have believed in you.”

“But what did you say? Someone almost the same age as us in Yunhai City and is also a Dark Iron level himself killed a Bronze level, Beast Tamer? How is that even possible?”

“Forget it if you refuse to believe in me. I’m sure that videos will surface on the internet very soon. When that happens, you’ll know that I’m speaking the truth.”

The young man shouted, and unable to hold on any longer, he slipped out of the hall.

“That guy, his story is entirely baseless. What is the purpose of him telling such a lie? A Dark Iron level Beast Tamer killing a Bronze level. How would such a prodigy even appear in a place like Yunhai City?”

Beneath the ring, few students shook their heads.

“Mr. Wu.”

At the same time, the class teacher of Yunzhong City’s Beast Taming Class walked to Wu Fuyun and said, “So, anyone else from your class wanna have a match?”

In the meanwhile, above the ring.

Guo Luo already used one single beast of his own,

To force the two beasts of a Dark Iron level student of Yunhai City off the ring.

Hearing the class teacher’s question of Yunzhong City’s Beast Taming Class, Wu Fuyun’s expression slightly dimmed.

But he still replied, “A moment, please. We have another student. He’ll be arriving soon.”

“Oh?”

When the class teacher of Yunzhong City’s Beast Taming Class heard him, he revealed a hint of surprise on his face.

He did not expect that given how badly was Yunhai City losing, Wu Fuyun was still going to send someone into the ring.

Whoosh!

Right at this moment, outside the Combat Hall, Nong Lejia finally arrived with Ye Xuan.

Subsequently, the two entered the Combat Hall without delay.

Besides the ring, when Wu Fuyun saw Nong Lejia and Ye Xuan, his eyes immediately lit up. Pointing at Ye Xuan, he said, “Mr. Gu, that student who I mentioned has arrived, should I send him into the ring right now?”

“He’s here, huh?”

When the teacher by the surname Gu heard him, he promptly turned to look at Ye Xuan out of curiosity.

But as it was not appropriate for him to check him out with his Mind Energy, he only took a glance or two at Ye Xuan. However, he could not notice anything different about him.

“Alright, then. Since that’s the case, let this student of yours go against Gu Luo as the final battle.”

Thinking, the teacher with the surname Gu opened his mouth and said.

“No problem.”

Hearing him, Wu Fuyun immediately strode to Ye Xuan and gave him a few words.

“One three-star beast and one four-star beast, both of which are peak Dark Iron level, huh?”

After listening to Wu Fuyun, Ye Xuan raised his head and glanced at the ring.

He let Lil Wan take himself and flew into the ring.

“Present your name.”

Seeing Ye Xuan coming into the ring, Gu Luo asked indifferently.

Despite having gone through a few matches in succession, his exhaustion was minimal.

The same would go to his beast.

When he saw Ye Xuan coming into the ring at this moment, he did not pay him much attention.

“Ye Xuan.”

Ye Xuan told him his name.

“Ye Xuan?”

When Gu Luo heard him, he was slightly surprised, “Are you the one in Yunhai City who Jiangzhou University specially enrols?”

“Yes, that’s me.” Ye Xuan nodded.

“Haha, very well then. Let me see how powerful you are.”

Hearing Ye Xuan’s affirmative reply, Gu Luo finally revealed a bit of excitement on his face.

Competing against regular students was for him, no pressure at all.

But Ye Xuan was different.

Although Ye Xuan had just only become a Beast Tamer not long ago, and his powers may not be that strong,

But with Ye Xuan identity over there,

Taking Ye Xuan down within this very ring would feel completely different.

“Gu Luo, don’t compete against him!”

But at this moment, beneath the ring, that young man by the name of Wang Bin, who had just returned from the toilet, stared at Ye Xuan standing at the opposite of Guo Luo within the ring from afar.

He felt chills all over his body.

Driven by a moment of nervousness, he shouted.

Thus attracting the eyes of everyone at present onto himself.

“What… what have I done?”

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Wang Bin immediately flustered.
